Ichat video and audio not working

They used to work just fine. Have no idea what is going on. I get the error 8 that every one around here is talking about. I've tried the suggestions of bandwidth, firewall etc. Don't know what else to do.

Hi,
Error 8 is about either Ports or the Way the LAN is set up.
SO has anything changed in the way you have set up your LAN ?
Also are you using a Routing device that gives the computer it's IP (DHCP) ?
If so do you also use Port Forwarding to open the ports for iChat ?
If this is the case is the computer at the IP that the Port Forwarding points to ?

  • IChat video and audio not working (yep, me too). Help? Help!? etc. :)

    I'm not here to start a rant about Apple or iChat AV. Before 10.4.4, my mate and I had some great chats on iChat AV. He had a cam attached to his Mac and I could see the video absolutely fine. We used to do audio chat, too. It worked fine.
    Now we're both on 10.4.4 and I've got a built-in iSight on my new iMac. Obviously, I want to try out some 2-way video now. It won't work for me, though.
    We can text chat, we can send files. We can't use audio chat anymore and neither can we use video. It's the old 'did not respond' problem.
    Nothing has changed in my setup, connection-wise. I've got a healthy broadband connection which is connected to a BT Voyager 250 modem. Connected to this, via ethernet, is my Airport Express.
    I've tried eliminating the Airport Express from the setup, but it makes no difference in this case.
    I don't really know a lot about port forwarding and telnet sessions, so... be gentle. Hopefully someone here can help get it working.
    Many thanks,

    HI,
    Depite some factual errors
    (it's the camera's fault your relatives are on MSN and "everyone is due a rant on the money you have spent" - not to mention the camera is at fault for the shortcomings of the applications other than iChat), it is a very nice rant.

  • Powerpoint 2011 mac - video and audio not working

    Hello all,
    I am using Powerpoint 14.2.5 on my mac running osx 10.8.2
    When I try to add video  (.MOV / WMV / MPEG-4 etc) or audio files (MP3, AIFF, WAV etc) they appear on the slide but the play controls will not work.
    Also when I play my slideshow they do not function.
    I can get a movie to play if I set it to play automatcally when that slide is reached but even then it only plays half of the video not the whole thing.
    In any case I only want it to play when you click to the next event in the slide show.
    Very frustrated.
    QuickTime is installed ok.
    All updates are installed for both osx and Powerpoint.
    Any tips?

  • Sound for recording video and audio not working

    I have tried everything to get the sound to work.  I have reinstalled the audio driver.  When I go to soundrecording.exe to see if I can record sound it gives me a message "An audio recording device cannot be found."  Please help this is driving me crazy.

    well, since people can hear you on a call, it's not a hardware problem with the microphone.
    It appears to be something wrong with your recording apps -- the camera (in the case of video) and whatsapp.
    First attempt would be to:
    a) install another camera app with video capability and see if IT will record audio. and
    b) uninstall and reinstall whatsapp to see if that fixes the problem.
    If that doesn't work, to a backup, then try a hard reset and re-install the apps one by one, confirming that recording works after each install.

  • Video and audio not synchrone with apple tv after update mountian lion on macbook pro

    i have a problem with my apple tv. after i bought and instaled mountain lion on my mac book pro i have trouble with apple tv and my laptop. when my laptop conects with apple tv most of the time my wifi doesnt work on my macbook but on my apple tv it stil does work. when it does work and i play a movie of my own by using itunes the first second the video and audio is synchrone but after that audio is at normal speed but the video gets behind. and i am getting sick of it. does sumbody reconize the problem and can help me with this problem?????

    Same issue here- I can airplay my amazon prime library just fine from my iphone 5 but on my macbook- (mavericks, 15 inch 2013 retina with quad core i7, nvidia 650 M and SSD) it just sputters and lags.
    I have noticed web video is considerably worse than local content, giving me pauses of up to 2 or 3 seconds in which video stops but audio continues in the amazon player. Youku video, however, seems relatively stable. Our subscription speed is 25 mbps, so that should be plenty to stream SD video from Amazon and doesn't account for why it would be nice and stable from the iphone, but not the mbp.
    Playing light, locally hosted steam sidescrollers  like Limbo is better but gives periodic drops in framerate on the Tv. when mirroring the framerate remains steady on the MBP screen.
    Games airplayed from my iphone seem relatively stable, though with a noticably lower framerate on the TV than on the phone.
    It seems these issues have abated considerably since yesterday's Apple TV update, but are still curious nonetheless and I'm not sure that the update yesterday was specifically meant to address those issues or if I'm just getting a time with less network interference now.
    Comcast recently installed a new router/modem/phone combo, replacing our old separate modem and router setup. I'm going to test if putting the network on a different channel helps.

  • Video and audio not in sync. Other answers here do not help.

    My audio and video are not in sync in many streams but some are OK.
    I do not have any extensions, add-ons and I am using the default theme. I have disabled hardware acceleration. I am now running in Safe Mode and the problem persists.
    The video and audio sync for the first few minutes and then they work their way futhter and further apart, usually several seconds out of sync. I don't think this particular situation has been covered in the other posts.

    You can check for problems with current Flash plugin versions and try these:
    *disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
    *disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
    *disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

  • Ichat video and audio freeze

    Im running a brand new macbook pro my friend has a brand new macbook basic. Ichat works fine, video and audio work fine but after about 5 minutes they freeze, "connection error". Screen sharing freezes as well but I don't get the error message. Regular text chat is the only one that works. What's the deal?

  • Video conversion/audio not working

    I put the video on iTunes, I right click on video, scroll down to convert selection, when the video is converted the video is fine, but there is no audio, what should I do?

    QuickTime expects video files with separate video and audio tracks, but many MPEG formats used a muxed (multiplexed) single track that contains both. Therefore, iTunes & the iPod (both of which use QuickTime) only show the video and no sound.
    iPod plays video but not audio of some exported files
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302588
    One way to work around this is to use MPEG Streamclip to convert the files to fix this issue...

  • Video and audio not in sync

    Anybody else experiencing video & audio not in sync since upgrading to Lion? I have a MacBook Pro 15-inch, Early 2011 with
    AMD Radeon HD 6490M 256 MB graphics. I mostly stream You Tube, Netflix, & news videos and occasionally watch movies I have in iTunes or on DVD, and since upgrading, I've seen out of sync video and audio in every one of these situations. Sometimes it starts out OK and then slowly deteriorates. Other times it just starts out that way and stays that way. Happens with all browsers as well as iTunes and DVD Player. Tried a few Google searches but haven't come across any postings reporting this with Lion, so I thought I would try here. Thanks for any confirmations and/or pointers to a solution if there is one.

    Ahh...boom. I have it too. Forgot it was even there. I had it turned off back when running Snow Leopard since it was glitchy. Apparenty, I somehow reenabled it and wasn't even aware it was on since its volume was turned down. After disabling it, all video & audio appears to be in sync.
    boom...the sound you'll hear as I nuke it from my system.
    Thanks efrancis76 for figuring this out. Much appreciated!

  • Video and audio not linking

    Hello all:
    I'm using FC 4.5 and for some reason the video and audio has decided to no longer link together... even though they are captured as merged files. The Stereo Pair and Link command under the Modify tab seem to have no effect (even though the clips indicate that they are - a line runs through them). Only recently started to occur. Real pain the in the buttocks. Any ideas out there?
    Thanks

  • Video and Audio not in sync after capture

    Hi there,
    This is probably a common problem, I have trawled the site but can't seem to find and explanation for it.
    I'm capturing vide/audio into final cut pro from my SONY DVR. The video i have streaming into the sony DVR is from a small covert video device which records video/audio onto an SD card. SO I'm running that into the DVR and then DVR is outputting that as DV PAL firewire (uncontrollable device).
    I'm capturing the 40 minutes of video as one clip, and when i drag it into the timeline the audio and video are WAY out of sync. Is there a simple reason for why this is happening?
    It's almost as if not capturing it right.
    I hope someone can help,
    Thanks in advance.
    Jamie McIntyre

    It is interesting that you are having this problem. I recently purchased a brand new Mac Pro (a week ago) and I am using Premiere Pro and it is doing the exact same thing. I mean this video and audio is REALLy out of sync. I tried capturing an hour at a time, and 30 minutes at a time. Still, no luck. I was debating on getting Final Cut, but after reading this post I am rethinking not only Final Cut, but using Apple all together. Part of me thinks that it is not a Premiere or Final Cut problem but a Mac OS problem. But hey, what do I know. I only edit for a living.

  • Video and Audio not synced on .mov file in final cut, but perfect in QT!

    I recently just captured a miniDV tape onto final cut. I captured it in 23.98fps. After I captured it and opened it up in final cut's sequence, the video and audio was not synced at all. it's way off and even when i try to move the audio around on the timeline and get one voice synced up, about a minute into the video it's off again.
    i tried opening the video in quick time under the captured scratch folder, and when it plays in quick time, it's perfect. there is no sync problem at all. only when i open it in final cut is there a problem.
    does anyone know how to fix this or what is going wrong?!
    HELP ME

    well i mean we recorded it in 24PA, which is what we've been doing for this project of ours. And when we go to capture in final cut we choose the Advanced Pull Down setting. So in the end, our video is in 23.98 fps.
    I just thought I'd mention that just to give more details. idk if it's helpful or not

  • Quick Time 7.67 video and audio not playing in CourseCompass MyMathLab

    When I first used MyMathLab through Course Compass, the video and audio played with the digital picture broken up. Since then it stopped running the video and audio. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Quick Time more than once without any change. Now when it is trying to load,I just get white screen with Q logo and an arrow running across the bottom of its window.

    I forgot to mention I use Firefox. I just updated to Firefox 3.6.9 today. The quick Time problem already existed before I update Firefox.Is there a problem with Quick Time being compatible with Firefox?

  • Video and audio not linked after upgrade to cc

  • Imported Video and Audio not sync

    Hi. Im new to a mac, and have imported all my old files over, having a problem with some video...
    I imported several videos into iMovie. The first group, some vacation movies, are fine. The next group, which was more movies and much longer, has had problems. About the first half of the video is fine, but the 2nd half will not work properly. originally it would play the audio but no video, just black. now, after remove some other videos from the same area, it will show the picture in the little box on the bottom, or on the top if I put it up into the project, and plays the correct audio, but the video will both up top and in the little box for that section of movie is from one of the earlier clips that was working on its own.
    any ideas how to fix this?

    So I just solved the issue, partially...I was able to use iPhoto to import the movies that were having the problem, so I can view them again. I still cant load them all up in iMovie, it has the same problem.
